There's a lot of evidence in the statement_of_facts however it's unclear how much of it can only be reconstructed with the private keys. Interested parties should really look to what was known to grant the search warrant.

They don't usually give details of how they caught them, because the next bad-actor will read that to know their tactics.

Search warrants are given on reasonable doubt. When it comes to cryptocurrencies, the feds have reasonable doubt on everyone. So it is always possible for them to get a search warrant.

I emphasized private keys, bec without them, no matter how much doubt the feds had, they couldn't prove anything.

> reasonable doubt

I think you mean reasonable suspicion & probable cause.

Reasonable doubt is the threshold prosecutors must appear to exceed for a successful finding of guilt with a jury (elimination of reasonable doubt).

You are right. I meant "reasonable suspicion & probable cause". My bad. Got confused between the 2.

Any evidence on this?
